Our Environmental Strategy

The Gateway Motel is dedicated to continually develop new ideas and strategies that will help to preserve our natural environment. As a business we have taken the incentive to incorporate eco-friendly practices throughout the motel whenever possible and are continuously striving for more eco-friendly options.

Our steps to becoming Eco-Friendly

  • Using only phosphate free laundry detergent.
  • Hanging bed linens outside to dry naturally.
  • Using environmentally friendly cleaners.
  • Installing shower savers, toilet tank savers and low voltage lightbulbs.
  • Timed water usage in flower beds; early morning or late at night.
  • Using organic fertilizers and native plant species in landscaping.
  • Renovating building to become more energy efficient.
  • Recycling, Reducing, Reusing, and Repairing throughout the motel.

Help us by doing your part

  • Please us green recycling bins whenever possible; ensure items are rinsed, crushed and place in bin. (Note: You can recycle paper, magazines, cardboard, boxboard, tin, cans, bottles, mixed plastics.)
  • Please conserve energy by turning off heat, lights and television when leaving your room or checking out.
  • Please place only the towels that need to be washed/replaced in the bathtub and try to reuse towels whenever possible!
  • Thank you for your co-operation in our efforts to both maintain and improve the environment. Taking just these small steps will help make a difference in our quest for a cleaner and greener environment.
